personal quilt











My ideas came from what the topic was about and how I wanted them to look when I put them together. I am very happy on how look and how they flow together. My favorite square is the outside square, because I like how the whole thing looks and how it goes together with who I am. The part I struggled with the most was trying to bring my ideas out of my head and make them real. My class mates and the wonderful teacher helped me get things done.

My inside and outside are very different in many ways. The outside shows how I am and what I let some people see. Like how I am proud of whom I am and what I am. The inside shows things that no one will know unless the see it or hear me say it. For example the horse and the cows most of the people that know me don’t know I live on a farm with a lot of animals. Yet again there are some similarities between the two like the love I have for my family.

I was very honest with my content and my expression in the squares. It was very hard to express myself visually because it’s hard to express yourself through a picture rather than telling it.

I love how my squares came out and what they mean to me. The strongest parts of my quilts are the pitchers, because they are pictures that not many people seen ever before.
